348. The Unique Blue Devil(2/2)

I'm afraid there will be no player bigger than Lewis on the bench in the entire league.

As the two sides started their second quarter, although the Cavaliers were slightly at a disadvantage, they were not as defeated as people imagined.

From this we can see that the Cavaliers' lineup in the new season is actually quite outstanding.

But even so, Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown still felt lingering fear off the court.

Because after the first quarter, the scores of both sides on the court were tied, which made Mike Brown feel comfortable.

Because this can be regarded as a rare moment when the Cavaliers can gain the upper hand in the last two seasons of the two teams.

So when Mike Brown saw the team's advantage being eroded by the Magic at this moment, he took advantage of the dead ball stage and took the lead in bringing James and other main players back on the court.

It can be said that when the game reached this stage, Mike Brown could no longer guarantee the players' playing time on the field.

Because at this time, what Mike Brown thought was to win this game!!

Seeing the Cavaliers' substitution adjustments, Van Gundy didn't dare to be arrogant at all at this time.

After all, even the referees were not on the side of the Magic in this game. In this case, it would be difficult for Van Gundy to be calm in the true sense.

So after seeing the substitution adjustments from the Cavaliers, Van Gundy gradually began to take the main players on the court.

And before going on stage, Van Gundy walked to Su Jiu and gently instructed him:

"In this game, the Cavaliers put most of their focus on the offensive end, which also led to their defense not being very good in this game."

"So after you go back a while, you can do more individual singles with the ball, play more with Dwight at the high position, and let Vince play as an off-ball player."

"Don't have too much pressure. I just need you to increase your offensive threat. I believe you have also seen that the referees in this game have some deviations in the call, so we have to play more cruelly."

After hearing Stan Van Gundy's words, Su Jiu nodded silently.

Since Su Jiu created opportunities for his teammates in most cases throughout the first quarter, he did not take too many personal actions.

And at this moment, when he heard that head coach Van Gundy wanted to increase his offensive threat, Su Jiu naturally knew what to do.

With all the main players of both sides returning, the two sides launched a very fierce attack in the second quarter.

Why is it said to be a very fierce offensive battle? Because even Howard puts the focus of his original defensive end on the offense?

Regarding this, it is really because the referee's penalty is so unpleasant. On the court, what is more comfortable to vent personal emotions than killing all sides on the offensive end?

In the entire second quarter, when Su Jiu came back, facing Mo Williams' personal defense, Su Jiu increased his possession ratio on the offensive end.

He played some pick-and-roll with Howard many times at the high position, so as to create more mobile phone opportunities through the pick-and-roll method.

In order to accommodate the slow movement speed of the Shark O'Neal, Mike Brown is still a regional joint defense in this game.

But because Mo Williams' personal defense ability is relatively poor, when Su Jiu launched an attack on Mo Williams in the second quarter, Xiao Mo's situation instantly became a little embarrassed.

Facing Mo Williams, Su Jiu has a very obvious advantage in height and weight. With the help of Howard's pick-and-roll for himself, he can easily make an opportunity to shoot at an open position.

Finally, after the half-time, the Magic team, who played away, relied on their overall better lineup, after the whistle sounded, they:

56:52

He led the Cavaliers by 4 points and ended the first half of the game between the two sides.

Throughout the first half, LeBron James' personal performance can be said to be very outstanding.

In the 21 minutes of his personal appearance in the first half, LeBron James made 8 of 13 shots, including 1 of 3 from outside the three-point line and 6 of 8 free throws. He scored 23 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the first half.

23 points in the half can be said to be the best match that James played against the Magic in the past two seasons.

For the Magic, Su Jiu, who had been invisible in the first quarter, showed his power after returning in the second half of the second quarter.

In the second half of the second half, Su Jiu's personal shooting ratio accounted for more than 75% of the team.

In the whole first half, Su Jiu played for 18 minutes, making 7 of 12 shots on the offensive end, including 3 of 6 from outside the three-point line and 2 of 2 free throws, effectively contributing 19 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists.

It can be said that Su Jiu has become more and more mature in the new season. At least compared with last season, Su Jiu's personal stability has improved too much, and his efficiency on the offensive end has begun to rise sharply.

In these games, Su Jiu's shooting percentage has been maintained at a higher level.

This is not because Su Jiu's shooting is becoming more and more accurate, but because Su Jiu has become more cautious in his shooting choices in the new season, and his offensive choices on the court have also become more diverse.

Therefore, Su Jiu's offensive efficiency will begin to rise sharply in the new season.

In the five games before the Magic this season, Su Jiu averaged 33.6 minutes per game, and personally contributed 22.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 1.7 steals.

Among them, the individual's shooting percentage reached 57.6%, and the three-point shooting percentage was also 41.2%.

It has to be said that Su Jiu has undergone a complete transformation in the new season. If it were in last year's finals, some people said that Su Jiu could be completely comparable to "Magician" Johnson.
